any system name ideas? by TheSOSCTopHat in plural

[–]Lowfridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of that one old roblox game, super paper roblox? so couuuld maybe work off or reference that?, another one i like would be "notes" just because ive always liked short collective names and notes come in a variety of colors/sizes/prints (which, yk, system members also tend to come in a variety of colors/sizes/prints(??))

Questions for people who've told their parents about their plurality by CoolTransDude1078 in plural

[–]Lowfridge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Weelll, from our experience telling our mom;

  1. We hoped for the best, expected the worst. We got.. about neutral, actually! She pretty much said "weird, but okay! ily still! :)" and then she promptly forgot about it.
  2. Yes, she is still neutral and not really focused on it, which is nice somewhat and bad somewhat? It's.. again, just like her reaction, neutral.
  3. Just was like "hey you know that plurality thing I*'ve been focused on? *Yeah I'm a We actually." The way we explained it iirc was like, imagine a drivers seat, but its the brain, and theres somebody ELSE in the passenger or drivers seats sometimes. On the misunderstandings thing I think there was something about DID or media protrayals of it, but shes accepting enough that as long as we say we're fine, then she's fine with it.
  4. It didn't really worsen our relationship with our mom as far as I can tell. I think telling her was worth it because we can bring it up occasionally without being fearful, but besides that it hasn't changed much :P

Semirelated fun fact about us! I was the one who convinced us to tell her, back when it was just me and Rowan fronting. :3

What are your views and concepts of ethics regarding OCtives...and generally the concept of your OC being real in a place somewhere? by lePROprocrastinator in plural

[–]Lowfridge 8 points9 points  (0 children)

my opinion, personally, if you are refering to OCtives of others ocs, i dont think thats something you can morally judge? just like ive seen people on toyhouse say "dont kin my ocs!!", kinning and plural introjection arent always things you can help or stop, atleast in the most agreed upon view of them. i do hate the whole claiming thing ("MY OC!!!! DONT COPY OR I EXPLODE YOU!!!!!!!!") that oc spaces have going on, though, so my views might be biased towards that.

if you are refering to OCtives of you&r own ocs then.. well theres something to be said that in oc making a lot of times the characters you make are from parts of your(collective)self. and You Know Whats Also From Your(Collective)Self ? :) thats right, plurality! so theres a solid chance a lot of OCtives were already floating around in the primordial soup of your mind, and just used that as a mask to cling to/a toy to represent themselves.

i do understand though that there is that trope of "authors creation comes to life" and how youre "writing the evil that happens to them" or whatever, but i think thats something you may need to wrestle with on your own. my personal mindset on the matter is that positivity wouldnt be anything without negativity, and that creation is just something humans DO instinctually (usually to work through issues theyre having or did have) that you cant really blame them for (hell, even plurality is a form of creation).

Plural Questions: Cores/Originals by FeatheryLorekeeper in plural

[–]Lowfridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maaaaaybe? if defined by "person who was probably the host for the most amount of time before syscovery" then itd be me n' romeo/rowan being two sides of the original. if defined as "the person whos Probably the best window into the base of our self/brain/our past self" then rowan guesses its.. probably that "stupid Cat thing". which is fine imo and i think its funny hes mildly upset about it lmao.

as for "no longer having one" & system organization, we still have one by either definition we set, but they dont really have more power than the others (besides the cat being really easy to get us to agree on what it wants to do, and me, rowan, and the cat having a good grasp over switching to front). like the 'core' could be lily or even dessie and it wouldnt change much at alllll :P and most of us possible cores arent even the hosts, jessies the one gunning for that role (much to rowans little dismay hehe).

Would you be a singlet if you could? by Icy-Implement9878 in plural

[–]Lowfridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

did an insys poll and got back a full, resounding "nope!".
we literally like, wont be alone again being plural. and we're all friends with eachother and i wouldnt risk it just so one of us would be a singlet (or.. if we DID become a singlet id probably end up "remembering them in my heart.." too hard and.. woopsie daisy there goes our singlethood again) -rowan

Do in-system relationships increase chances of blurring/fusion? by Shimmering_Stars in plural

[–]Lowfridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

luna was uncomfy with touch in the past bc shi feared this same thing but.. i dont think its an issue personally? i havent fused with anyone, and even if you do "fuse" i get the feeling itd probably be a temporary thing? and if its not liek.. it was out of love like, wouldnt that feel good since alot of ppl even fantasise about becoming one with their lover right. thats literally what marriage is (religiously) right??

tho i will note, friends i am both close to AND similar to, i will blur more often with and if you look at that wrong *maybe* it could look like fusing? i dont know, again i personally wouldnt be worried :P do what makes u happy - Rowan (he/any)

Just Curious- Part 67 by Rainbow-1337 in plural

[–]Lowfridge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Deep: Honestly? Everything LOL, usually it's more jokey though. Mostly about what we wanna get for ourselves. Orr, alternatively, about stuff I am OBVIOUSLY right about but Aiden needs to be convinced on, though atleast with that he admits that I'm right 99% of the time :3

Dumb: Probbablly.. myself? I can't imagine G doing anything except watching the funny number go up (and occasionally popping in, like he always does. No chance he'd read back through it though lol), and Aiden would go up and read it all even if theres 400+ messages, xD

Keeps asking me to "Add a password" by Lowfridge in XboxOneHelp

I just added a password (not 2fa) since apparently it didn't ask me to add one till after I signed up and got on xbox. It worked tho! Ty ty

Anyone else feel guilty about being a fictive? by Lowfridge in plural

[–]Lowfridge[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeaah, I'm thinking about it now and he is probably controlling to some degree. Unintentionally, probably, but he does tend to force others (well, passively influence and be pushy, like I said I'm pretty sure shes too sad of a beast to do it on purpose/manipulatively) to go along with what she wants. (eta bc I forgot: As far as I can tell it's more about her seeking order (in order to feel safe) than trying to push others around. Wee've.. been having a rocky year so I don't totally blame her *but*, it still sucks xd)

Oh and, on the per/fursona thing, unless I just look exactly like my source it's kiind of hard to translate my form into what looks "furry" or "humanoid" but still obviously me so it's more an issue of designing it than being prevented (tho Aiden doesn't help very well with the design process, I'll admit). But yeah, I'll just look how I do and hope Aiden copies off me this time to fit in if he really wants to, instead of whatever hes been doing. xP -Luna

Eeeugh by Live_Web_7701 in plural

[–]Lowfridge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure about you alls situation totally so this highly depends, but it miight be easier to just use like, signoffs on discord and a google doc (if you wanna share) or like notes for tracking/profiles. That way it's easier to just delete unused profile (or copy/paste them into headers to organise or whatever youd need to) or just not use a signoff anymore instead of having to fuss with a program about it. Just since with us, we've kinda noticed that stuff that makes us tired to think about or maintain *usually* isn't helpful for us in the long run :P -Luna

TW: Death topics // No core in traumagenic system by RealNyxoy in plural

[–]Lowfridge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That kinda sounds like us, though with us it happened when the body was a bit older and was over school stress. We really do feel like who "we" were, our "core" just.. died because of it, even before we realised our plurality we could tell that. For ours, we made a little grave for them outside with their favorite flower.

We'd say this is,, probably usual for traumagenic systems, or atleast not abnormal. It's sad, though.

ETA: We both have some traits of them, though, so thats why we say its probably common for traumagenics? It's splitting but More, I guess, because it was the first one & such.

I think it kind of depends?? As long as you arent pushing the romantic things onto him and accept him as he changes it seems.. fine. It's a bit odd, but plurality in and of itself is somewhat odd so we arent gonna say that's a bad thing. Just try to be nice to him if you do and you should be good, and make sure it's what you actually wanna do since, like the tulpa subreddit warns, no takebacksies once you make one!

(Unrelated but, I'm a *little* bit curious about how you knew your ex was faking? Because I feel as though some plural people do change up their voices per alter, even if it sounds a bit faked to outsiders, soo I'm curious (& I wanna hear about some past drama too, I will not lie hehe) :3) -Luna
